Could be bad wiring, low gauge wire will do this, you need to be a little more explicit wlyhen you say receiving interference. There is well more than one type of interference.
Thankyou for replying.
The manual from the oscilloscope said to keep it away due to the probability of interferance from the power supply, even the desk fluro causes some interferance. I wandered if the magnetic field from the transformer was causing a problem.
I get interference if i put my wave generator on top of the scope when testing. The transformer in the power supply of
the generator has some leakage flux and it bothers the waveform as it modulates the CRT electron beam. This means
i cant get away with stacking it on top so i have to put it off to the side away from the scope case.
If you have poor wiring to the office the wiring itself could be to blame not the devices, no way to tell without a complete layout of your entire electrical situation.

Not the only option.
You could buy mumetal sheeting and shield it yourself. But that's only if the coupling is magnetic or electric fields, if it's something on the electrical system coming in on the mains wiring itself it's a totally different scenario. Know your noise, know your enemy =)
